Chapter 143: The Black Forest

The moment we arrived at this interface, a strange sensation immediately hit both of us.

I am very familiar with this breath, it is the yin qi that has been filling the underworld for a long time, but the strange thing is that there seems to be a thick aura mixed with this yin qi, so that Ke Meng and I, who are in this gas at this time, both feel a strong sense of depression.

At this time, all we could see in front of us was a dense black forest, and the rest of the place was shrouded in a thick black fog, and with the two of us, we couldn't feel what was hidden in the black fog.

"Ouyang, where are we now?" His eyes swept over the terrifying darkness, Ke Meng's expression suddenly became nervous, and he timidly pulled the clothes next to me and asked in a low voice.

"Ke Meng, don't worry, King Yama must have his intentions in sending us to this place." Slowly reaching out to take Ke Meng into my arms, I immediately comforted Ke Meng softly to keep his mind calm.

A short time later, the dull voice of the king of Yama came from the void again.

"Ouyang Yuqing, what you are in now is the first layer of hell, the Black Forest Hell, the thick black fog that fills here, it will dig out the deep fears in the minds of the two of you, and manifest them in front of your eyes, you need to overcome them and successfully get out of this Black Forest." At this point, I seemed to be able to hear a sense of helplessness in King Yama's words.

"Although I really want to help you, however, the eighteen layers of hell are in charge of the ten halls of Yama, especially the eighth layer of hell where Wu Jiu is imprisoned, and it is also in charge of the king of Qin Guang who has a holiday with you, so it is inconvenient for me to meddle in this matter." As King Yama's words continued to float out, a black claw-like object suddenly appeared in front of me, suspended in mid-air.

"But if you are in hell, you will be affected by the territory, and if you don't have enough concentration, I am afraid that you will fall into hell forever, therefore, in order to keep you both safe, I have lent you this Nether Ghost Claw, which can help you in times of danger." With that, King Yama's voice slowly disappeared into the void and never sounded again.

After a little silence, I rubbed Ke Meng's head beside me affectionately, and then said with a smile on my face: "Let's go, Ke Meng, we will definitely be able to successfully save Uncle Wu." ”

At first, after hearing King Yama's introduction, Ke Meng's heart also rose and fell.

She didn't know much about yin and yang, but she didn't know what kind of fear filled hell was.

As a priest to the Heavenly Master, I had learned about the introduction of the eighteen layers of hell from my master a long time ago.

In the first layer of the Black Forest Hell alone, more than half of the souls could not survive, because they could not overcome the timidity and fear in their hearts, and finally fell into the Black Forest forever, and turned into black fog, permeating the sky.

That's why, when we came here just now, in addition to feeling the weird yin qi, we could also feel a violent qi filling this black mist. Come to think of it, the source of this anger should be the resentment of those dead souls.

And this is only the first layer, as the number of layers deepens, the horror we have to face becomes more intense.

In particular, the Sword Forest Volcano, which was filled with the eighth layer of hell where Wu Jiu was imprisoned, had to rely on not only astute reflexes, but also extraordinary courage, otherwise, one wrong step would bring about catastrophe.

Thinking of this, I didn't dare to continue to think about it, but tightened my right hand that was holding Ke Meng's arm, and immediately said with a wry smile: "Ke Meng, let's go, be brave, Ouyang will always be by your side." ”

Now that we have come to hell, it is impossible to regret it, and the only way out is to successfully enter the eighth layer of hell to save Wu Jiu's soul, only then can we leave hell safe and sound.

Ke Meng, who also thought of this, was pulsating his slender legs at the moment, following my footsteps towards the depths of the Black Forest

After entering the Black Forest, we realized that the reason why it is called the Black Forest is that in addition to the thick black fog that fills the sky, even the trees that grow in this area are all covered in pitch black.

Looking at the leaves that looked like black ink soaking in the wind, swaying in the wind on the black branches, my heart was suddenly filled with a touch of surprise.

I knew very well that all this surprise was caused by my visuals, because, when I cast my eyes on the top of the black tree not far away, I suddenly saw a woman in a black robe, with long hair hanging down, standing gently on top of the black branch with her own feet.

And those eyes that shimmered slightly red were staring at me and Ke Meng on the ground at the moment, as if they were planning something.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but have a thought in my heart: it seems that the ghosts hiding in the Black Forest have already begun to move.

Thinking of this, I shook Ke Meng beside me, and immediately raised my hand to point to a thick black tree not far away, and whispered, "Ke Meng, do you see that big tree?" Now you walk over first, then crouch down, and put your head up, and if I don't speak, you must not look up, do you hear? ”

Although Ke Meng at this time, his courage rose greatly because he was worried about Wu Jiu. But after all, she is a person who has just entered the yin and yang world, so I still don't want her to experience some things that will cause discomfort in the hearts of human beings, otherwise, the consequences will be very serious.

After hearing my words, Ke Meng obediently walked to the trunk of the black tree alone, and then slowly buried his head in his arm.

Because Ke Meng's soul is a human spirit, the ghosts in hell will naturally not be stupid to approach her. So, now I'm fine, as long as I make sure that Ke Meng won't be frightened.

After seeing that she had made the preparations, I slowly pulled out a pale cyan rune from my pocket and squeezed it tightly in my hand. This rune, which I also brought from Wu Jiu's rune pack, is said to be able to summon a storm to assist in the battle in a short period of time.

I haven't used this rune, but based on my strength as I'm about to enter the Quaido, I should be able to control it well

At this time, I slowly raised my head and scanned the black sky, only to find that the black ghost just now had disappeared without a trace, replaced by another ghost figure of a man wearing black and white clothes, and this ghost figure was also staring at me on the ground with a pair of bright red eyes.

After a long time, the ghost said to me in a sharp voice like the roar of a beast: "Child, do you remember me? ”

Hearing this, I glanced at the strange black figure in surprise, only to find that the face of this figure was so familiar, as if it was hidden deep in my memory, but I had not excavated it for so many years.

"You, who are you, tell me quickly." At this time, I was unexpectedly angered by the lukewarm words of this black shadow.

"Child, after so many years, I didn't expect your temper to become so irritable." Seeing that my current state suddenly changed into a different appearance, the black ghost suddenly sneered.

"You, don't talk to me by that title." Listening to the "child" title floating out of the mouth of the black ghost, my heart was inexplicably flooded with a sourness, and when this sourness touched the anger in my heart, my expression immediately became angry.

"Child, take a closer look at my appearance, and you will naturally remember who we are when the time comes." As soon as the words fell, the black ghost slowly disappeared above the black treetops, and then the man's ghost appeared in front of me along with the female ghost I had seen earlier, and was suspended in mid-air.

At this time, I set my eyes on the two ghosts in front of me, only to find that as my eyes continued to look, the strange feeling suspended in my heart became a little stronger.

And when my eyes focused on the red cloth pinched in the palm of their hand, my expression suddenly became nervous, and I urgently shouted to the two ghosts in front of me: "You, you must be the parents who died suddenly when I was born, right?" ”

I am very familiar with the red cloth in their hands, because it is the red cloth that was soaked in blood when I was in the hospital that day.

"Kid, you finally remember us." After hearing the words that came out of my mouth, the female ghost with a slightly drooping face explained to me in a low voice: "When you were born, your eyes were bloodshot, and we were worried that you would not be able to see in the future, but now it seems that it should be fine. ”

"I don't have anything to do, and besides, I am under the care of my master, and my life is very good." At this time, I always wanted to tell the two ghosts in front of me some of my thoughts, as if they were really my parents.

However, I could vaguely feel that there seemed to be another force ruling over them.

"Since you're living so well, it's time for us to talk about what's next." Just when I was excited to find my parents, the female ghost standing in front of me said to me in a deep voice.

"What's the matter?" Hearing this, I can sense that these two ghosts may be about to start thinking crookedly.

Sure enough, after my words came out, the expression of the female ghost in front of me suddenly became strange, and she whispered: "Since you are my flesh and blood, it is time to return your body to us." (To be continued.) )
